It has been a soggy Saturday morning! We’ve seen widespread showers and storms, and more are expected through the morning. While the severe weather threat is low, a few storms could have heavy rainfall and gusty winds. Take it slow if you have to drive around town this morning. A Flood Watch is in effect until 3 PM for Pearl River, Hancock, Harrison, and Stone Counties. Some showers may linger into the afternoon, but the rain won’t be quite as widespread. Highs will be in the low 70s.
